Aha!  Now I know how Microsofties do MIME properly -- they don't.
Instead they do HTML with

<img src="cid:003e01be1642$a526f940$b86efea9@win">

tags inside, which allows an entire document consisting of many parts
to be rendered.  Which makes sense.

If Gnus is to render this properly, I guess Gnus will have to
transform these so that w3 can pick up the images properly...  (Gnus
will have to stop rendering the HTML in one window and copying it
over, though, since images don't survive that very well.  William --
any comments?)
